Tenkara Rod Co.

Q: Let’s very easily pretend I know nothing about Tenkara fly-fishing. What is it and what are its advantages over or differences from traditional fly-fishing?

Maker

A: While Tenkara is an older form of fly fishing, we have found ample advantages and differences to what most people call western or traditional fly fishing. Not to say that it is better, but just different. For example, without the reel, one is able to concentrate more on presenting the fly. So for a beginner, it is much easier to grasp the concept of fly presentation and how important it is when fishing, rather than worry about how to cast, mend, or manage a long fly line. We like to say that Tenkara is a simple way to fly fish.
